Bad layout or just me?

When you go to figure your PAP, DON'T USE THE BRUTAL NIGHTMARE!!!!!!!!!!
You want to use a low flare ball for this. Even if the Misfit Pearl has the wrong PAP it can still be found using that ball. The higher flare potential of the ball the more the PAP changes as it transitions going down lane.

What line do you play with the BN? The MP?

Thanks Bilf, I would have used my BN as I am more comfortable with that ball.

BN:
On the lanes I play league at I start right foot on 20 and aim for 12-13, and ball normally gets out to around 7-9.

MF:
Foot on 12, aim for 9-10, and ball to about 6-8.

I was able to play the other day, but sadly no video's, my wife was holding our baby most the time she wasnt bowling. I managed to pull out a decent set of games, first two where just my BN on every shot, 227 and 174, then third game was BN strike and MF spares, 186 and my last game was just MF at 203.

I figured out where to stand better with the MF but still didn't feel great, so I will probably get it redrilled even after bowling decently with it. The thumb has a slight pitch to it that I wanted to try out but doesnt really work for me, it rubs the base of my thumb a bit. Which could also be from the glove I wear shortening my span. Luckily with my BN it feels fine. When I get my new holes figured out, should I wear my glove as he measures everything?

Thanks for the Info guys, I eventually want to get a ball inbetween my BN and MF, was thinking the Diva or new Marauder Mutiny, (If I can convince my wife, Maybe If I buy her a new ball first she won't get mad at me, haha) But I wanted to make sure I had my PAP and got use to transitioning between balls first. That is definitly one thing to learn, When to use what ball.

You are absolutely 100% correct, learning when to change balls or as
most call it when to shell up or shell down on the ball surface is a very
important part of bowling.

I'm not a big fan of my Misfit pearl to be honest, my layout has the pin up and between the fingers it just feels like it never does the same thing twice..
